I added the main reference to the code. I am going to give you all the 
pointers on this research, mainly recent congestion control proposals 
that include pacing.

I removed that select in Kconfig, I agree it doesn't make sense at all, 
for portability. However, pacing works with 1ms resolution, so maybe 
a "depends HZ_1000" is still required. (How do you run 1ms timers with 
HZ!=1000?)
